BNP Paribas Rates, Credit & FX Quantitative Research 2025

I got into the Assessment Centre for BNP Paribas Rates, Credit & FX Quantitative Research (both Long Term Internship 2025 and Graduate Associate Programme 2025). They didn't say what I should expect, and I can't find any info online - does anyone know how might it look like? Or anyone else got into the AC?

I speak with someone who had the Assessment Centre (AC) for the Long Term Internship today, and they mentioned preparing for brainteasers, statistics, and dice probability questions.

Do you know if there are any additional Assessment Centres scheduled, as I have also applied for the internship and successfully passed all the cases in the HackerRank test

Do you know if they actually got the brainteasers/probs and stats questions? I only got live coding questions.

I know there's one more this week that my friend is having!

They only mentioned one question in more detail. You play a game where you add the face value of the dice, and if the value is different from r, you can keep rolling. What is the expected total score? It could be that you needed to code this question like one of the problems on Hackerrank, where you had to code the formula for a dice problem. Hope this is helpful.
Can I ask if the coding questions were similar to those in the Hackerrank test, or were they more basic programming questions?
Hopefully, I can get an invitation for the AC if they have more planned.

That's very helpful, thanks so much.
I would say it was more basic programming! Fingers crossed you get it :smile:)
